ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE
Vision:
The importance of environmental science and environmental studies cannot be disputed. The
need for sustainable development is a key to the future of mankind. Continuing problems of
pollution, loss of forget, solid waste disposal, degradation of environment, issues like economic
productivity and national security, Global warming, the depletion of ozone layer and loss of
biodiversity have made everyone aware of environmental issues. The United Nations
Conference on Environment and development held in Rio de Janerioin 1992 and world Summit
on Sustainable Development at Johannesburg in 2002 have drawn the attention of people
around the globe to the deteriorating condition of our environment. It is clear that no citizen of
the earth can afford to be ignorant of environment issues. Environmental management has
captured the attention of health care managers. Managing environmental hazards has become
very important.
Human beings have been interested in ecology since the beginning of civilization. Even our
ancient scriptures have emphasized about practices and values of environmental conservation.
It is now even more critical than ever before for mankind as a whole to have a clear
understanding of environmental concerns and to follow sustainable development practices.
India is rich in biodiversity, which provides various resources for people. It is also basis for
biotechnology. Only about 1.7 million living organisms have been described and named
39
globally. Still many more remain to be identified and described. Attempts are made to conserve
them in ex-situ and in-situ situations. Intellectual property rights (IPRs) have become important
in a biodiversity-rich country like India to protect microbes, plants and animals that have useful
genetic properties. Destruction of habitats, over-use of energy resource and environmental
pollution has been found to be responsible for the loss of a large number of life-forms. It is
feared that a large proportion of life on earth may get wiped out in the near future.
In spite of the deteriorating status of the environment, study of environment has so far not
received adequate attention in our academic programmes. Recognizing this, the Hon’ble
Supreme Court directed the UGC to introduce e a basic course on environment at every level
in college education. Accordingly, the matter was considered by UGC and it was decided that
a six months compulsory core module course in environmental studies many be prepared and
compulsorily implemented in all the University/Colleges of India. The expert committee
appointed by the UGC has looked into all the pertinent questions, issues and other relevant
matters. This was followed by framing of the core module syllabus for environmental studies
for undergraduate courses of all branches of Higher Education. We are deeply conscious that
there are bound to be gaps between the ideal and real. Genuine endeavour is required to
minimize the gaps by intellectual and material inputs. The success of this course will depend
on the initiative and drive of the teachers and the receptive students.
SYLLABUS:
a) Forest resources: Use and over-exploitation, deforestation, case studies. Timber extraction,
mining, dams and their effects on forest and tribal people.
b) Mineral resources: Use and exploitation, environmental effects of extracting and using
